Is it right

[Captain Grizzly]

This is very annoying, I've marooned several stow aways on cutthroat and left them to the raiders, grenadiers and gypsies on the beach there. And the problem is getting worse than just basic access players who don't have a clue doing it, I had a lvl 18 paying member do the same thing!

But, I have noticed that the basics may not be ignoring us as we think they are. I've had several encounters where they would ask to crew or join up and I would answer no but even though they asked in local chat and I replied in local, they would keep asking if I was going to answer them as if they could not see my response.

I have had that porblem with a guild member, his parental controls were not set correctly and he could not see local or crew chat, only our guild chat. So they may not be ignoring us, but it is still rude to board a ship without asking, no matter the lvl of the player.
